    I just bought a set of seats from suburbanseats.com that were recommended on here in the g van parts link section. I haven't mounted them yet, but they are brand new, 19" wide at the base. With slider brackets. Look like an easy installation to me. I subscribed to their email list, and got $20. Off. $239, with free shipping for the pair

    Enter the product code universal seat pair on the suburbanseats.com website, or hit the link in the thread titled SEATS, seats at last under the G-parts link section here. I tried to post the link here, but was unsuccessful.

    the more i'm looking at the universal seats like you got, the better i'm liking them, reclining would be nice,  the only other reason i wanted the others is there more like what came in it from the factory,

    I got some seats from an early Miata that fit well. I first tried some from an early 90's T-bird, but then I realized that the factory van seats are fairly low-profile and narrow.

    Someone was showing Civic seats. The 88-91 Civic/CRX Si seats are a great choice.
